Shell:
What took the longest in getting the Tykerb was scheduling and getting the MUGA scan and the EKG prior to get it prescribed.
It was already on United Healthcare's formulary, so there was no approval delay. My onc faxed in the prescription today, there are only mail order pharmacies that are able to get it.
I'm hoping to get the Tykerb by early next week. Altogether the process has taken about 2 weeks or so.
